Certainly, the preferred fix is, that packages ship native service files which override/replace the sysv init scripts. In case of nfs-common/rpcbind, Ubuntu has done some extensive work to properly integrate nfs-common/rpcbind with systemd. This hasn't landed in Debian (yet) and is not something which can be backported for jessie. The drop-in snippet for nfs-common to augment the dependency information when being run under systemd is something which seems to be suitable for jessie and could be added to the package in sid to give it some testing first. Ideally, that drop-in is shipped by the package itself. This would mean a stable upload for nfs-common.
